The New York Times | A.O. ScottAdd Critic to Favorites

The main audience for this dim little sex comedy has no particular interest in seeing Ms. Alba act. They want to see her in her underwear and also to confront one of the central cultural questions of our time: will she take her top off?Read the full review

Variety | Brian LowryAdd Critic to Favorites

Dane Cook sells out arenas with his stand-up act, and Jessica Alba is, well, Jessica Alba, but once "Chuck" exhausts their devoted bases, this doesn't promise to bring much good luck to Lionsgate.Read the full review

Entertainment Weekly | Chris NashawatyAdd Critic to Favorites

Can we finally just admit that Dane Cook isn't funny? In a comedy so lame its plot could've been swiped from a Bazooka Joe wrapper.Read the full review

The movie spares no effort to reach out to the crudest, youngest audiences it can.Read the full review

There's an audience out there for this kind of thing--Cook is obviously a populist, and Norbit made bushels of money--but if this is what passes for funny, what in the world of comedy DOESN'T qualify?Read the full review

The Hollywood Reporter | Stephen FarberAdd Critic to Favorites

The script by Josh Stolberg has no fizz. It's possible to sit for half an hour without cracking a smile. Part of the problem is sheer repetitiveness; another problem is that Stu's leering remarks are repulsive rather than endearing.Read the full review

Boston Globe | Wesley MorrisAdd Critic to Favorites

This is less an affront to women than it is to comedy.Read the full review
